On entering the roll-room he made dash for

The Cincinnati Labor Convention.

C1NCINNATI Feb 19.-There are already few
delegates here to attend the industrial conven-
ton or conference called to meet Feb. o. Mr..
Winston. of North Carolina, who has been
identified with the Greenbackers. is among the
early arrivals. Local delegates are careful to
correct the general impression that the conven-
ton will be controlled by Knights of Labor.
Said one: 1.-THE Knights of Labor give it no
official sanction. Individual Knights may at
tend as delegates, but they will have au-
thority from the ORDER and their action
will in no wise bind the order. The conference
is to be made up of individuals representing
various interests, but is not to be controlled by
any one interest"
All the delegates here are hopeful that the ses
sion will be harmonious, and that platform OF
principles will be agreed upon which shall com.
mend itself to the public favor They are dis
posed to boot at the idea Of any faction schemine
to capture the convention and guiding it to sui,
selfish purposes.

FERRY's SUIT FOR DAMAGES
The argument in the Ferry suit for damages
against the Surgical Institute closed at noon yes
terday, and. after dinner, the judge gave his in
structions to the jury. In the course of his re-
marks he touched upon the charge of suborna-
ton made by the attorneys on both sides,
and instructed the jury that it would
be their duty to use any evidence of suborna-
ton against the guilty side. for it was evidence
in itself that they had a weak case The jury
retired at 230 o'clock, and late last evening were
still out. The opinion prevails in legal circles
that they will fail to agree.
BIG DECREASE IN LITIGATION.
The decrease in litigation in this county in the
last ten years is surprising. The records show
that in the year 1875 there were A. 600 cases fled
in the Superior Cosrt In 1876 there were 4 500.
In 1886 there were but sixteen hundred filed,
and the indications are that there will be fewer
this year. These figures show that at present
there is less than one-thrd as much litigation as
there was ten years ago. The Criminal docke
shows even greater decrease than the Superior
Court.
